Identify the ascending numerical order of the decimals and fractions, keep the original format for each item: 1 1/9, 1 1/6, 1 3/12, 0.01, 0.062

1 answer

To identify the ascending order of the given decimals and fractions, we first need to convert the fractions to decimal form for easier comparison:

  1. 1 1/9 = 1 + 1/9 = 1 + 0.111... ≈ 1.1111
  2. 1 1/6 = 1 + 1/6 = 1 + 0.1667 ≈ 1.1667
  3. 1 3/12 = 1 + 3/12 = 1 + 0.25 = 1.25
  4. 0.01 stays as is.
  5. 0.062 stays as is.

Now we can list the values in decimal form for comparison:

  • 0.01
  • 0.062
  • 1.1111 (1 1/9)
  • 1.1667 (1 1/6)
  • 1.25 (1 3/12)

Now, arranging them in ascending order gives us:

  1. 0.01
  2. 0.062
  3. 1 1/9
  4. 1 1/6
  5. 1 3/12

Thus, the ascending order is:

0.01, 0.062, 1 1/9, 1 1/6, 1 3/12
